From the battlefield to the boardroom, The Art of War has been the definitive book on strategy for more than 2,000 years.
General Sun Tzu's work, still required reading for CIA officers today, has decided battles in conflicts throughout the world, and has been used in warfare by the likes of US generals Colin Powell and Norman Schwarzkopf, Chairman Mao, and the fearsome armies of the Vietcong.
Its focus on outsmarting your opponent without resorting to warfare has also seen it put to use in both the workplace and the sports field, and is famously studied by sports coaches such as Luiz Felipe 'Big Phil' Scolari, whose World Cup-winning Brazil side of 2002 read it cover to cover.
"Victorious warriors win first and then go to war," wrote Sun Tzu, "while defeated warriors go to war first and then seek to win."
Now read the masterpiece in this beautifully-produced Apostrophe Books edition with an introduction by Gulf War legend and bestselling author Andy McNab - the British Army's most highly decorated serving soldier when he left the SAS.
During the Gulf War he commanded Bravo Two Zero, a patrol that, in the words of his commanding officer, 'will remain in regimental history for ever'. Awarded both the Distinguished Conduct Medal (DCM) and Military Medal (MM) during his military career, McNab was the British Army's most highly decorated serving soldier when he finally left the SAS.
He wrote about his experiences in three books: the phenomenal bestseller Bravo Two Zero, Immediate Action and Seven Troop. He is the author of the bestselling Nick Stone thrillers.
Besides his writing work, he lectures to security and intelligence
agencies in both the USA and UK and is on the board of a private security company operating in hazardous environments.
Now Andy McNab has joined forces with ApostropheBooks.com to bring you some of the world's greatest military classics.
